Dance Of The Dialectic by Bertell Ollman
Steps in Marx's Method
A lucid defense and reconstruction of dialectical method as a dynamic, relational way of thinking that emphasizes contradiction, motion, totality, and concreteness; the book reframes dialectics as a patterned, rule-governed “dance” rather than a fixed logic, contrasts it with mechanical and metaphysical approaches, and traces its development from Hegel to Marx while stressing Marx’s turn to material practice. It clarifies key dialectical categories (contradiction, negation, the concrete), dispels common confusions, and shows how this method can be applied to analyze capitalism and social change as a scientifically useful way to grasp processes and transformations in social reality.
